Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

keep in mind lots of BB are asymmetric, and the size depends a lot more on the cranks/chainring position. probably be better just to note they use a chainline other than 42mm and let people figure it out and/or point them to a detailed explanation of chainlines like SB. example
